Packet of Blog Links and Reflections upon Not Tying the Scapegoat to the Tree in Back of House to Use Every Day Like A Refreshing Fountain

Anfali 58 + Dawah + Isaiah 30

Allah (swt) would not Accept that even a goat (as a scapegoat) be tied to a tree in someone's backyard. To be used daily like a swimming pool or fountain by the cursing of it.

There were 2 scapegoats in Leviticus 16. 1 sacrificed on the altar in Jerusalem. Though that would not be what it is called in Islam and our offerings would be near Mecca/Baitul Atique (Leviticus 17 prohibits altars to Allah (swt) outside the Ordained Sacrificial Precincts of Jerusalem or near Mecca). And the 2nd scapegoat had to be let free after pronouncing the sins of the people of Faith upon it.
It would be unmerciful to curse the scapegoat daily tied to the person's tree in backyard. An inhumane thing to curse it every day like it is some form of refreshing fountain. Nabi Sulaimon (epbuh) alluded to those who do that type of thing because they are trying to "get right" or "feel right" about themselves for their day. Leviticus 17 declares false altars as occult/secret arts. Another one of the problems associated with stoking interest in it. Unfortunately, it is necessary to reflect in this way in these parts. 

From my Dawah blog to non-Muslim friends and family:

Blog post: "More Reflections on the Appropriate Rigid Ordinances Concerning Sacrificing"

{Continuing the scapegoat reflection in previous post.}

Kindness to animals here is illustrated in a Dervish Tale concerning a man traveling from Baghdad for 3 years to reach his old friend the King of Cordoba. He lost his adab in the journey but also became plagued. The King received him after a period of reconditioning and resets and then assigned him a flock of sheep and told him to "Go up yonder mountain (and tend the flock)." Spoiler alert it did not work for several flocks but then later he received a flock from the King and the plague lifted and the barakat and hasanat from Allah (swt) began to flow for him. 

There are a number of Laws such as in the notecard, and also the Ayah that Nabi Yahya (as) was honored on the Tongue of Truth for his kindness to animals (which today would require formal education). Another Ayah in that the She-Camel could not be mistreated by the Thamudi under Nabi Salih (epbuh) and they be allowed to graduate to being amongst the Salihun despite their productivity in other areas of life. Nabi Salih (epbuh) would not receive them into his flock of Salihuwna.

But the main phenomenon is that those who tend with care and kindness camels, horses, goats, sheep, cattle, chickens, etc. then Allah in the past would send much hasanat and barakat to those who practiced this...in being kind and tending their flocks with care. It is a metaphor for being a "Shepherd" in Biblical history. So, what happens, for example, to those who mistreat animals and tie a goat(s) to a tree in backyard to scapegoat it every day to refreshen themselves? They are considered "Unkind, Unjust, or Cruel". What are the wages for unkindness? Or zalim?

Blog Post: "~The Man Whose Time was Wrong~"

https://workandtheotherwork.wordpress.com/2026/01/27/the-man-whose-time-was-wrong/  

{Continued theme on animal treatment, those who have to daily trip up and shepherding. Not a know it all. I've not shepherded before, nor better than many of you. Just needed to research this none the less.}

Post published in 2011. Possibly my first blog post. Long references to the Book of Ezekiel and Lost Book of Enoch along with Proverbs, Gospel and Quran.

Blog post: "Good and Bad Shepherds: About those who feel that they have the luxury of tripping others up in "Faith"

{Continued theme on animal treatment, those who have to daily trip up and shepherding. Not a know it all. I've not shepherded before, nor better than many of you. Just needed to research this none the less.}

One of the best reconciliations but hardest or worst to experience (rather than read about which is absolutely my preference over the experience learning system) is in the importance and relevance of this Law from Al Masihu Isa ibn Maryam (epbut).

Really by nature we all confirm this Truth innately and outwardly. Every one of us want someone who is qualified, reputed, accredited to lead Faith discussions, prayers and services.

But another "by nature confirmation of this Truth innately and outwardly" is that we also confess, without even putting into words, that every one of us want the better plan to be the direction and not the worst. Someone comes to you and in control with a worse plan and you are saying to yourself, "How did they get here and controlling? It's going from bad to worse. Miserable. They prefer to do what harms and not what benefits. They keep accusing me of going to do things I'm not thinking of doing. Or that I am up to some random deviant lone acts. Their plans are worse for me and the survival of my household and do not come close to "some of" our previous guides. The consultation has to be from the Holy Books of God that are neglected by our guides and previous guides." This can happen in the House of Allah but also outside (though "in some" cases they are justified about their concerns) when someone wants to control a person of Faith and have not enough guidance to lead them, nor control them, nor take the steering wheel, nor take the head of their table...about that Faith system. They are required to exceed the guidance and plans of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

We innately and without putting into words only seek "better planning" to guide, control and lead us, and not the worst plan.

This Law from Al Masihu Isa Ibn Maryam (epbut) defends and supports all of that with the Messiah (as) saying that his blessings are on a generative succession or exceeding the Pharisees and Sadducees in righteousness (which includes works and faith study and comprehension). His (as) blessings are not on the degenerative takeovers or successors in guidance, control and leading (or shepherding). Every one of us declare this with and without words.

Dua When we meet someone who's actions declare that there is no limit to how low they will go to trespass, transgress, torment, afflict you of Faith in God.

 

Bismi Allahi Al Rahmani Al Raheemi

ASA WR WB to believing Muslim friends:

The 1st 2 paragraphs of this blog post are in reference to the blog post "Does the Original Sin Have A Virtually Similar Version On Earth?":  https://muhakeem1abdullah1.blogspot.com/2019/11/does-original-sin-have-virtual-version.html  

This case has 3 main issues: 1. It is probably one of the most foolish things to experience in the history of the world; 2. It is probably one of the hardest things to experience in the history of the world; 3. It is a closed case. Already solved. God already ruled on it. Yet, it continues to be a condition of exploit against people of Faith in the 3 Abrahamic Faiths.

Another thing that it seems to have going for it is that it literally appears to be a riddle from Garden of Eden. In a sense it makes it a mutual gain and loss. The gain being it is an issue from the Garden of Eden. The loss being that to experience it in the Fellowship of the Spirit makes it one of the most hideous of crimes, assaults, afflictions and torments to people of Faith. It is a hideous form of spirituality like vampire meets cannibal to become one. When we meet someone who's actions declare that there is no limit to how low they will go to trespass, transgress, torment, afflict you of Faith, then you ask Allah to accept that as a form of dua from the assailant and accept their dua to be cast into the bottomless pit. Furthermore follow it up with dua of your own to cast them into the bottomless pit from Surahtul Qariah Ayat 9. Along the lines, "Oh Allah please cast into the bottomless pit those who declare that there is no limit to how low they will go to trespass, transgress, torment, afflict, exploit me in Faith and Righteousness to You, God. Ameen."

Basically the issue or question is: Who to Source for the Holy Spirit? Spirit of Life? Life Energy? Energy? This has been covered over many topics. Those topics include: 1. Tree of Forbidden Life; 2. Tree of Forbidden Fruit; 3. Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit (which implies loyalty to sourcing the Holy Spirit must be maintained); 4. Making someone a sacrifice (human sacrifices and the right and the wrong of that, if there are any right conditions, but certainly the main issue being the exploit of the privilege, then what of cases in which the person did not deserve to be sacrificed); 5. Making someone a scapegoat (human scapegoats and the right and the wrong of that, if there are any right conditions, but certainly the main issue being the exploit of the privilege, then what of cases in which the person did not deserve to be scapegoated); 6. Ten Commandments - Thou shalt not kill; 7. Story of Abel versus Cain; 8. Nabi Salih and the Sign of the She-Camel; 9. and of course Ten Commandments on not Blaspheming God;...all of these and a few others touch on the issue of life forbidden for consumption. May the eternal peace and blessings of Allah be upon all the Prophets mentioned in this and the next blog post. To quote Nabi Sulaimon (epbuh), "Such is the fate of all who are greedy for gain (life) it ends up robbing them of life."
